CD-R help - a possible clue?

[Art Wagner]

Lucas; 
The devices you mention (/dev/scd0,scd1 etc) are the 
correct ones for scsi emulation for CD-R and CD-RW. You need 
"scsi generic support" compiled into your kernel or as modules.
You need modules "scsi_mod.o, ide-scsi.o, isofs.o, and cdrom.o"
or compile the equivalent into the kernel. After these 
modules are installed, and a fstab entry of;
/dev/scd0  /mnt/cdrom  iso9660  defaults  0 0
is included, and the directory /mnt/cdrom is present
the command "cdrecord -scanbus" should give a response showing the 
presence of your CD-R drive.
I found a lot of good info as to setup and usage in the 
CD-Writing-HOWTO.
Good Luck
